May God curse those who believe something as immature as a God making himself human, being born of a virgin, and not being able to stay dead. Really, why are you cursing Jews? Are you jealous that they are able to claim being God's people, a claim Christians could never, and can never truthfully make? God revealed Judaism to the Jews as a people, rather than Jesus revealing his message to a select few individuals. No, the Jewish holy book is the Tanak'h, which is the correct translation of the Hebrew Scriptures (what Protestants call the "Old Testament"). The Talmud is thought of in Judaism the way Apocrypha is thought of in Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy: it's not inspired, it's not inerrant, but at times can be useful. And yes, it's true, Jesus has ancestors of ill repute (I believe at least 2 prostitutes are listed in his genealogies). Not all Jews call Jesus a bastard, although he would be (being Jewish, and under the Law): his parents weren't married, and premarital sex is forbidden in Judaism, as well as every Christian denomination I've heard of. So to answer your actual question, why do Christians support Jews. One reason is that they want to evangelize the Jews, and they're going to need to support the Jews after centuries of Church-sponsored anti-Semitism. Also, Jesus was Jewish (the Gospel according to Matthew is all about Jesus fulfilling the Law). And the most important reason: 75% of Israel is Jewish. According to Christian eschatology (study of the End Times), Jesus cannot return unless the Temple of Solomon is rebuilt (it was destroyed in 70 Common Era by the Romans). And wouldn't you know it, the Dome of the Rock, one of the holiest mosques in all of Islam is on the Temple Mount, where the Temple is supposed to be located. So that's why Christians support Jews so fervorently.

Why do you spread hate and discontent every time you can? I am not a Jew but have studied the Jewish faith. I have not heard these things said of Jesus or of his mother. But even if what you say is true, Jew today are more than willing to co-operate in Harmony with other Christians and other faiths. We Christians are more forgiving and less judge mental than you Islamic people. We don't have a belief that just because you are not Christian or Jew you are less than anyone else and you don't have the right to live and breathe. In our religious belief there is not any Infidels. This word is from a hateful faults prophet.
I have also studied Islamic religion and found that it is a very narrowed minded faith of over strictness and no mercy. There is not tolerance within the religious bounds and no exception to religious virtues. Death and destruction is the only way to solve your disagreements, along lies of hate and discontentment, such as this question. Please read and study more to maybe find the truth of life and truth of mankind. Alla be with you.

The Jews called my Savior a Teacher and a Prophet, they failed to see Him as the Messiah, but they are still God's chosen people and because of the promise God made to Abraham they will always be His people, they will be given a chance to accept Jesus. And as for Mary being a whore, not, that was Mary Magdalene, Mary was blessed and chosen to bare the Son of God! Oh, by the way there is a third Mary, but the Bible doesn't say too much about her. I can't say what the Talmud says because I have never read it. I feel the Bible tells us that at some time God put blinders on the Jews, I think because of their constant idolitry and disobedience , so they did not recognize Jesus when He came, then God extended salvation to the gentiles, namely any one who isn't a Jew. But I do feel that God is not finished with the Jews because of the promises He made to them in the Old Testament.

Because it is the nature of true Christians to forgive. Our religion is often times turned against it's own structure out of greed or hate but, truly it is about forgiveness, redemption, and
deferring many judgement calls to the almighty.
Also from a historical point of view, we Christians have been persecuted for our beliefs. I see no moral way to do the same to
others.
Take the current situation between the Middle East and the USA. Islam should not be abolished, they have just as much right to their beliefs as anyone else. Yet those whom use religion as a weapon must not be allowed to harm the innocent.
So it is forgiveness and charity, and the understanding that all
people are flawed in one way or another, (even Christians, sometimes especially us), that allows us to coexist. I have gay and Hindu friends, who are all equal to me. God created us all right?
God forgives right? So if cleanliness is next to Godliness, I’ll wash my hands of intolerance and defend my neighbors, even if
their different.

First off, most "Christians" have the mistaken view "that the Jews are still gods people." This is not true, but this is why they feel the way they do.
The reason I say this is because now, since Jesus Christ died, Christians are considered the New Jews. The Spiritual Israelites, circumcised of the heart and "not of the flesh." This is all found in the New Testament, but Christians don't study their scripture and simply listen to what they are told from their "pulpits" or ministers, so they don't (for the most part) understand they "they" took the place of the Jews as "Abraham's descendants" to be "numbered amongst the stars." (Col. 2:11; Romans 2:29)
So, sadly they are uninformed and consider themselves secondary to Jews and Israelites, who I have nothing against. Its just that Christians DID replace them in God's New Covenant.

I must have missed that part about Jesus in the Talmud. /sarcasm
You can curse my people but you know what? I don't curse you. My G-d and the teachings of the Torah and Talmud teach me not to hate anyone or look down upon anyone. I guess you must follow a really hateful religion if you think this way. May G-d bless you and show you a more tolerant path where you think ill of no one. Really, why spend so much hate? It only muddles your heart and soul
I personally do not dislike Jesus. I think of him as a great man and a great rabbi, but do not believe he is the son of G-d. I believe in G-d and G-d alone. I really pity you for your close-minded thinking.

Do you actual care what a team of idiots say. What you're able to desire to comprehend is fundamentalists are a team of ineffective morons who dont comprehend something appropriate to the bible, and declare they do reason they take it actually. somewhat, they're the worst thank you to bypass religiously. Any form of fundamentalism, Christian, Islam, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, Pagan, eastern, is in basic terms some invention of a team of conceited "Holier than thou's" who've by no skill even took a sort on the bible, and have self belief that a e book made hundreds of years in the past, written with hidden messages is a regulation e book. Fundamentalist see their holy textual content as a rulebook, that may not be completed, because of the fact holy books contain all forms of writing varieties, which contain thoughts, allegories, parables, poems, songs, historic money owed, you call it. So alongside comes the fundamentalist, without education on something, alongside without undemanding experience or education, bypass an make interpretations claiming they're top, whilst in certainty they only thoroughly dumbed down faith so some uneducated yokels and inner city trash ought to comprehend. indexed right here are a catalogue of issues fundamentalist do a million. They carry forth in a "hearth and brimstone" type 2. They placed too lots attempt struggling with evolution theories claiming the international became into created in six days 3. they have self belief that their little team is the only saved team, in basic terms reason they have self belief it precisely the way their team does, and thats adequate adequate. so they might sin and be a dirtbag all they % reason their saved, and all the different good people bypass to hell 4. Terrorism is suitable in Jesus call 5. They justify all filthy strikes. 6. They communicate loud, and use too many syllables, to make themselves sound smart. 7. They unsolicited mail YA like CJ, till now time-commemorated as Chris. yet as a side notice, mainline protestant church homes fit in nicely too, reason they settle for evolution. so which you will answer your question, they experience their doctrine is greater desirable to all others. yet their the only ones of their little shell no longer accepting evolution, and can quite combat it quite of settle for that their entire thoughts-set is a shame. So fundamentalism might desire to be stopped if we % hatred and dictatorship.

Well honestly, I would say this. First off you need faith in order to believe and understand that there is a supeior being who happens to exsist, questioning of whether there really is a GOD, Faith, the keyword here is what helps you to get through, just like air you cannot see it you can feel it, when the wind blows hard you cannot see if but you can feel it, correct??? Of course, lol. But you cannot see him, but believing and having the faith allows you to do so, there are other religions that have other believes and faiths in there type of God, so of what one religion says to another is just there faith, but you cannot compare or contrat Christianity, to another religion such as being a Jew, or a Muslim, because the faith and believe is different.

I don't accept their view; it will not get them to heaven. But the Bible is clear that God has a special love for the Jews and the gospel was brought to them first (of course they rejected it, by and large). God also was very harsh with anyone who ever cursed or brought harm to Israel in the scriptures. He sent His only Son to Earth through birth in the Jewish race.
That's why I, for one, support them. I do wish they would come to repent of their sin and know Christ. As I wish that for all peoples.

Even the Muslims do not have their own identity except terrorism supported by Jihadhi. Muslims are simly following most of the christian thoughts and ideology. Muslims could not named for their god for their own, Ibrahim Abraham (Ibrahim), Eesa (Jesus), Mosses (Musa) etc. From the jews community christnaty has raised, hence there is no wonder to have good relationship. But christians could not support muslims because Muslims are against the peace and love and encouraging killing of other people through terrorism and jihadhi.
